2. Climate Displacement In The Global South And The Responsibility Of Rich Countries with Fawad Durrani

Fawad Durrani is an expert on climate change, migration and displacement at Greenpeace Germany. He previously worked for various international NGOs in Afghanistan. He has been living in Germany for the past 9 years and earlier this year, he finally received German citizenship. At Greenpeace, his work focuses on raising awareness of the link between climate change, conflict and displacement. Listen to this episode when we talk about the impact of climate change on global majority countries. In recent years, Europe has experienced a significant influx of refugees from conflict-affected regions. As we've discussed in previous episodes, climate change is a major driver of migration. Today, we'll explore how it also influences conflict, creating a complex interplay that's often overlooked in public discussions. We'll also delve into a crucial aspect: responsibility. We'll examine the emission and financial responsibilities of industrialised countries in addressing these challenges.Learn more: UNFCCCAdelphiBerghof FoundationInternal Displacement Monitoring CentreFawad’s blog on the Greenpeace website (in German)Follow Roots & Routes on Instagram!Intro sound credits:Afghanistan hit by second earthquake in less than a week / Today / YouTubePakistan floods: At least 69 dead following week of heavy rainfall / Global News / YouTubeAssociated Press / COP27 / YouTube shortsShehbaz Shariz, Pakistan’s prime minister speaks at COP27 (from Climate Change: What is loss and damage? / Sky News - YouTube)CBS News / COP28 kicks off with creation of climate loss and damage fund / YouTubeENGLISH SPEECH | JASON MOMOA: Powerful Climate Speech (English Subtitles) / English Speeches, YouTube Hosted on Acast.
